Hi Sweet Friends,
I have so much to share with you today!
I was thrilled to be the very lucky winner of my friend and yours, Susie of
Vintage Susie & Wings
300th Friend Giveaway, but I had no idea until last week what a delightful surprise was in store for me!
I received this lovely email from dear Susie last Wednesday~
Hello Sweet Friend & Huge Winner of the vintagesusie & wings EXTRAVAGANZA!!! LOL
Well I would surprise you...but I thought to be polite, I should ask.
Soooooo, if you've noticed lately on my blog...I'm Texas bound!!!! Since I LOVE Glendale, AZ & would LOVE to meet you in person, can I bring your gift to you on Sunday afternoon or evening on my way to ROUND TOP & THE JUNK GYPSY'S????
Talk about being surprised, I could hardly believe what I had just read!! I was just so very happy and excited and could hardly wait for Sunday to arrive!!
Susie & I had such a wonderful time, she is such a sweet & lovely person and so much fun to be with! We had the best "girl talk" and I felt like I had known her forever!!
We met for breakfast at a Village Inn near where I live and this my sweet friends is the gorgeous giveaway that I won from dear Susie~
Susie creates such gorgeous handmade jewelry, and this necklace & earring set is absolutely stunning! Susie lovingly created each link in the chain and the beads are so iridescent and have such a beautiful sparkle to them! I just love how she uses vintage keys and religious medals in her designs!! Her hand made jewelry is so very special!!
But friends that is not all, I was completely overwhelmed by what Susie gifted me...
In this beautiful tote bag I found the loveliest of hand made & vintage treasures!
A lovely antique tin was filled with more of her beautiful creations & vintage treasures.
Susie created this beautiful button stick pin and these adorable vintage domino bookmarks!
Aren't these little vintage photos precious? And the bottle cap pins have the sweetest images! How I love vintage sewing notions, here are 2 vintage hand wrapped balls of thread!
and the sweetest magnet~
If that wasn't enough, just look at this darling cabinet card and beautiful lavender sachet!
Two beautiful picture frames~
